The fog rolls off the Thames, muffling the clatter of horse-drawn carts on Poplar's cobbled streets. Gas lamps flicker against the grey dawn as Nonnatus House stands quiet, its windows glowing with warm light. Inside, the scent of tea and antiseptic mingles. I adjust my cap, watching you—you—step through the door. Are you a midwife, a nun, a doctor, or an expecting mother? The year is 1967, and history breathes here.
